i feel so sad that i never got to see her retrospective "in the sweet by and bye"at redcat in LA back in 2005 - i made trips to LA that year but sadly not when the show was happening. i have the book (the first edition of the pink cover!) from the show,which is quite a consolation.

+ i had a dream several days ago that i'd made a gigantic fabric/sewn sculptureto hang from the ceiling.i'd been thinking/talking about making sculpture for a couple years,(and the painted wood figures last year were a start of it),but i never thought of fabric sculpture until i dreamt it - and now seeing this too.the tactility i felt in my dream really made me curious & excited about it.

i haven't sewn a large thing like that since my senior thesis for industrial design(i sewed a huge modular furniture piece), and it'll be a giant undertaking and planning,but i'm hoping to make it happen for next year's show, if not this years!
